Kinda an odd question but any issues with lights (interior or exterior) being a problem?

I know the last time we went to a drive in my wife's Edge was a pain in the butt keeping lights off and what not.

Love it. If it ever stops raining in Vermont, we plan to go to the drive in and do something similar.

I’ve not had a bed in my Maverick but I did have blankets in my truck bed for my kids to sit and enjoy fireworks recently. They enjoyed it!

We took mine to the drive in about a month ago and it was a bit of a pain. First problem is the battery discharges to quickly for a movie with the key in the accessory position, so I had to turn it on. Then had to figure out how to turn the exterior lights off. Once I figured that out I could find no way to turn off all the dash lighting. We had to stuff a blanked into the gauge pod and ignore the rest.

I'd love to do the mattress in the bed but Vegas is slightly warm this time of year, even after sunset! LOL

why do you need the key in the accessories position? There is a control for dash lights next to headlights control , also can turn lights completely off in the same area, on the(ECOBOOST).

Needed the radio for the sound, which required the vehicle to be on because the hybrid battery is to small to power the vehicle for a full movie and start the car at the end.

Thanks for the heads up on the interior lighting!

I don't want to sound old, but I think the last time I was at a drive-in, I rode in inside the trunk of a full sized GM car to avoid paying the $1-2 entry fee. It was "Warriors".

I like the idea of a drive-in. Really, watching a movie in the comfort of your own car or truck. And having that bed in back is perfect.

That's nice that there are still drive in's around. I thought they all dried up.
